I'll have a go at your end times question, Paul. It is a bit scarey that I can still draw Offiler's chart from memory and have a working knowledge of the Latter Rain teaching even after all this time! However it is all filed away under interesting end times theories with a bunch of others that have ...

I like your dividing of culture and teaching, Faith. Good point! Every group has a sub-culture - whether it is a workplace, church, music group ... Or cult. When you leave and join a new one there's a whole new bunch of acronyms to get your head around and a fascinating period of observation while y...

Hi Paul You have raised an interesting question or two. What did MCF / BCF get right? I'm going to just make some general comments here and maybe some more specific ones in later posts. If you go back to the beginnings of what was called The Move we need to consider it was being run by a bloke who w...

Hi Faith Is it mean to say I'm glad I'm not the only one who had that experience of people picking up their jaws from the floor when you tell them of our previous lifestyle?

This is from his son Caleb's facebook page: Hersch Mendel Garfinkel's funeral will be held at 1:30pm Wednesday 22nd August, 2 Tower ...

Hi Bagel yes he really did! I can't remember what we did instead but someone must have pulled something out of a hat and we carried on rewardless as one does ... Rallying to the cause and the show must go on, old chap and all that. Strange times. But no, I can't remember the drummer - at least not t...

Hi Bagel While you might not disparage a fellow educator I have no such qualms - especially one who is no more than a fly by night swanning in as though he has been actively involved for years. We all know where he has been and it certainly bears no resemblance to anything tertiary or educational! A...

I was very surprised to find that web site? The Doug Watt Websites was definitely a give away. Seems MW is over his breakdown -- though having read his garbled warblings about his learners and curriculum and whatever where it sounded like he was trying to give the impression that he has been at this...
